lol nope dont know him at all. I did look at his boat he was selling while it was PBC. It didn't interest me Ill leave it at that. I didn't buy my boat to be "That Guy" that wants to race everyone. I got it as a upgrade to my previous boat. a 30' Eliminator.
At our lake trying to be the top dog is always a losing battle as its home to a few of the fastest boats in the country. Dave Scott and Bob Bull.

should be able to rev to 6200 limiters.

I've got hering 15.5 x 34 5 blades on mine. does 130 MPH at 6150 RPM. Limiters are around 6200 RPM

I had Maximus labbed 15.25 34s on it and it struggled past 120MPH and slowly made it to 127MPH. nearly ran out of lake.

The Herings fly up to 130 MPH. In fact, it goes better with people in the back seat.

The rpms in the photo were dropping as we let off. It'll pull to 6150 which i where my limiters seem to be. I need to try some herrings and some different 5 blades. These were 4 blades and it ran ok but seemed it needed more tail lift. I think 122-124 is about all ill get out of mine and still have decent midrange. I don't want to just prop it for a max number.
